About This Story

Your family’s legacy is on the brink of collapse, and there is only one man with the power to save it—or finish the job. Arjun Varma-Rajpoot is a name whispered with fear in the boardrooms of Mumbai. He is cold, calculating, and has spent years plotting the downfall of your empire. But when the dust settles, he offers you a lifeline that feels more like a golden cage: a fake engagement. In 'Claimed Rival,' you step into the heart of a high-stakes billionaire romance where the lines between hatred and desire blur into something dangerous. As you navigate the glittering galas and ruthless corporate wars of Mumbai, you aren't just reading a story—you are living it. Thanks to SideHop’s cutting-edge face-swap technology, you can upload your own photo and see yourself as the protagonist, feeling every stolen glance and heated confrontation as if you were truly there. Imagine the scent of expensive cologne and the suffocating heat of Mumbai’s elite social circles as you stand by his side. Your family name is everything, and it’s slipping through your fingers, leaving you no choice but to play his game. Arjun claims he only wants the merger, but the way his hand lingers on your waist when the cameras are gone suggests a much darker, more primal obsession. He is a possessive hero who plays for keeps, and you are trapped in his orbit. Every choice you make will determine if this contract ends in a clean break or a total surrender of your heart. This is a classic enemies-to-lovers tale with a modern, high-tech twist where you are the lead. You will feel the tension of every 'fake' kiss and the weight of every secret shared in the shadows of his penthouse. Can you survive the forced proximity of a man who swore to destroy you, or will you find that the most dangerous place to be is in his arms?
